  • Even though california is still in a mortgage meltdown maybe we need to take a better look at the lenders allowing this. over 70% of the people want to keep there home but the lenders are still taking them back. what I dont understand is it cost them so much money ro foreclose why not reduce the principal and lower the rate and let the homeowner keep the home. If anyone can give a real answer to this question I would like to hear it.

  • How come low and middle class making good dicisions about what to do and government doestn'. what is that tells me?

  • What funny is that later on down the road (many, many, many years later on down the road) California will break off and go into the ocean. Thats funny. Of course we could all die in a nuclear war or something before that. Money sucks and is mearly a boring necessity that we use to buy mostly stuff we don't need. Lending is borning, mortgages are boring, paychecks are boring, this video is boring.....lets all just pretend that prohibition is here and brew our own moonshine then shit our pants.

  • No one seems to know what they are doing, especially in California. Let the foreclosures happen and move on from there. Obviously, it was a house of cards. Mortgages granted to illegal immigrants with illegal jobs was stupid. Lending huge amounts of money to people on disability or social security with no assets or jobs---stupid. I can go on and on. Where were the experts and the media when these loans were being passed out so loosely? They seem to have a lot to say now.

  • Expand the F H A program and increase the loan amounts. The problem has spread beyond subprime loans. Foreclosures hurt everybody. Congress should act NOW !!!

  • Politicians and Consumer Advocate Groups are still only looking at band aid solutions to the symptoms & not the real root causes of the problems. Foreclosures, refinancing into bad loans, using your equity to buy liabilities are all symptoms of the bigger problem in the US....Financial Illiteracy is the problem!

  • well said.

  • Unless we stabalize real estate values our economy will crash.

  • I meant to write, 'I did NOT hear Paul discuss affordability.'

  • I got through most of the video, but I did hear Paul discuss AFFORDABILITY. The loose lending standards artificially drove prices up. Home prices must come down. You can't expect to lock rates for some loans and have the problem go away.
